Well we just had some work finished off in the house. It was decided that the original wood base board that was put in when the extension was built many years ago had to go and be replaced by tile.
Personally I didn't think that it would make that much of a difference but I was wrong. The improvement is huge. Unfortunately I didn't take any photos of the original base board but I did get a couple of the new tile.
The hardest part of getting any work done here in Sarnia is finding a contractor to do the work. I have heard stories that people having wait for months just to get an estimate never mind the actual work.
We were lucky. We knew someone that was a very handy with their hands and did the work for us. The interesting part of this for me was that he had just come back from spending time in Columbia teaching English as a second language. It was fun to trade stories about Central and South American and see the differences and the similarities between the two regions.
